I'm going to ignore the lack of emails, SMS's or phone calls to see if 
anything had been organised, and your preference to use a system that is 
( and no offence to Andrew, here) returning pgsql connection errors far 
more often than the login page as a canonical means of determining if a 
talk has been organised.

On the 2nd of May, in an email titled "CLUG in need of a new cat 
herder", you said;

"Maybe it's time for me to retire and hand the baton to someone who can 
give it more time and love.

If someone wants to step up and do the job permanently, they're welcome 
to it.  I'll help where I can, I'll pass on the information I have, and I'll
continue to come to meetings and help out there.  And if no-one wants to 
step up to the plate, then I'll continue doing what I can and trying to 
improve."

Later that day, I replied with;

I don't have the time to "do it all" I had when I handed it off to Paul 
in 2007, but I'm certainly happy to take the main CLUG meetings 
organising back on board if other other people are interested in the 
other roles.

Now, I must admit, I didn't wait for you to come back and "endorse" or 
"bless" my taking the role over, but neither did you correct me when I 
stood up in front of CLUG last month, advised we had interesting talks 
lined up for the next few meetings, and if anyone wanted to talk about 
anything, to see me after the meeting.

So what it appears here is that there confusion and mixed messages all 
around. I've reverted the LUGIAB system back to list you as the "cat 
herder" for CLUG, and you can add the talks you've organised into the 
system and carry on organising the meetings.

All the best
